Where can I find a giant wooden spoon?

Post by Ravenmage » Wed Oct 01, 2008 10:40 am

Hello everyone, for about a month now I've been trying to find a giant wooden spoon. You all know the spoons that witches use, right? Well I've looked in stores, supermarkets, eBay and even novelty shops but no luck. Is there a name for them or something? I tried googling Giant Wooden Spoon, Witches Spoon and Cauldron Spoon but no luck. Oh and of course it's for a witch costume I'm working on.

Back in the 60's and 70's a very popular kitchen decoration were gigantic wooden salad sets; a fork and spoon, that you would hang on the wall for no discernable reason.

I'll bet that you could find either one or both in a second hand store or Goodwill.

some of them were 2 or 3 feet long.
All you that doth my grave pass by,
As you are now so once was I,
As I am now so you must be,
Prepare for death & follow me.

What are the dimensions you're looking for? -- specifically, how long?

I found some foot-long serving spoons here:

There's a 24" long cherry spoon here:

Try another search... use the words "Large Wooden Serving Spoon" or "Large Wooden Spatula" or "Large wooden ladel"... you might have better results if you think more "kitchen" and less "halloween" =)

These would be awesome 'cause of the Tiki carved handles!

That's the best bet. I don't see as many as I used to though.
Oh, your so cool, Brewster!

the World Market store has a whole kitchen set: fork, spoon, and knife
Last night 'twas witching Hallowe'en
Dearest; an apple russet- brown
I pared, and thrice above my crown
Whirled the long skin; they watched in keen;
I flung it far; they laughed and cried me shame
Dearest, there lay the letter of your name!
